Fedora :: Mutt: Weird Plus Sign At The Beginning Of Wrapped Lines?
Nov 12, 2009
I've only seen this occur in cases where I'm viewing a GPG-signed message and a line wraps. A plus sign appears at the beginning of the next line. Is this something I can get rid of?
In Windows's CMD when you execute a command and then start writing the next one (while still executing the former one) the characters remain in the buffer and they all come up nicely to the new line once the previous command has been executed. In Ubuntu when I do this the newly typed characters annoyingly get in the beginning of the previous command's output lines. I don't really understand why isn't the default method as in Windows's CMD. I mean otherwise almost _everything_ sucks with it when compared to Unix/Linux shells/terminals (commands are longer, syntax is annoying, etc.) So I'd like to know how to do this in both Bash and Zsh.
i didn't know which section to put this in, but since it is a question about gnome3, i figured this was the best place. every theme i use besides the default adwaita theme seems to have these red outlines around every element, as seen in the attachment.
Just installed the new google earth. I had some errors trying to get it to start but I got that fixed. But when it opens all works but the text is really weird and just in strait lines!! What is this? And how can I fix it?If the image does not show up just go to
I need to insert 3-4 lines of text to the beginning of a text file. The file is a largish MYSQL dump, the result of a backup shell script. This shell script should insert the required text.I've wrestled with sed, but lost.
I have a problem my ubuntu is the latest distro but the shiftkeys are not working like when i whant an @ sign i cant make that sign the keybaord layout has been changed i even have done most of the solutions found on the site and no use.
when ever i try to sign in to my messaging system it gives me this message and wont let me sign in,< Received unexpected response from [URL] useTLS=1 is not allowed for non secure requests.>
So I just turned my computer on and it was beeping rapidly, and it would stop if I hit "Enter". Also this came on my screen: Cannot set Fray", something like that. It boots fine..just what is that?
I am new to Fedora 12 and was trying to setup a FTP server using VSFTP. I have it installed, but not sure where to go from there. I ultimately would like to have all of my PC( that are on the same subnet to be able to access the ftp server) and possible be able to access the server from outside of my local network.
I just tried installing Fedora 12 and at the beggining of the install i got this message about my disk which cannot be read until it is initialized, and if i initialize it all data on the disk will be lost. Disk was formated using GUID, and had one HFS+ partition on it. I accidentaly clicked "yes" on that error message, and after realising what I just did (some 2sec later) i pulled out my computer's power cord out.
Now my entire disk is erased, it has no partitions on it, and all data is lost...
How do i retrieve my data from the erased disk, and why did Fedora want to do this to my disk?
I've been surfing and googling for a while trying to figure out how to set up my PC running Fedora 13 to connect to Windows AD using Single Sign On services. I couldn't find any guide or tutorial or anything. I believe I'm not the only case when the company is running Windows AD for authentication.
When I use YUM to install ICAClient it ends with the following message "Package ICAClient-11.100-1.i386.rpm is not signed" (see the code below). However, when using browser (Nautilus) to start installation of the same ICAClient-11.100-1.i386.rpm it completes with success (see the image below).
This happens when installing with YUM from the CLI:
When I was changing my password with the "passwd" command in Debian Lenny, after the confirmation, I received the following message: Bad: new password is just a wrapped version of the old one
I know the passwords are not saved in clear text, but hashes. Even further, when a single char changes in the string (the password in this case) the hash is completely different. So, how does linux detect a wrapped version of an old password?
I'm having a problem with sed syntax. So far I can sed the HiResBoundingBox to capture the images I want and output to pdf. But now ever so often I get an illustrator file that has hexadecimal values at the start and end of the file. Imagemagick powers through this and still creates the rastorized previews I want but the gs dies using the epstopdf script to output the vector files. If I hand remove the hex on both ends of the file, both functions work fine and the file can still be managed in illustrator but if I resave it the hex comes back. It only happens on a few files plus it seems to serve no purpose as the files work perfectly without it. I cannot get the sed statement to work. I've tried a blue million variations with no luck. Copied some that I found, same result.
Start of bad eps file: ADOĆ ^@^@^@5O ^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@UO ^@im^K^@yy^@^@%!PS-Adobe-3.1 EPSF-3.0^M
The way I need it to look: %!PS-Adobe-3.1 EPSF-3.0^M End of file the same: %AI9_PrivateDataEnd^M @ @ just needs to be: %AI9_PrivateDataEnd^M Tried sed -n '/%/,$p' < = blank file sed -i 's/%/,$!d/g' = same sed 's/%/,$!d/g' = same sed 's/%/,$!d' = same
I can't seem to find any proper reference to this.
I'm a new programmer (a life-long desire, but at 40 just getting to it) and cutting my teeth with Python. I just found the popen2 module today. I was so excited because I could do this:
If you want to use another shell, substitute that shell for /bin/bash (e.g., /bin/sh for the shell portability purists out there). It is easy to modify what is returned as well. Don't like the tuple? Then just change it to return or even print stdout if you like.
I considered making my system run the following if an incorrect password is entered 10 times in a row or a specific dead-password is entered.Code:shred /home/.ecryptfs/$USER/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase.Because ext4 doesn't journal the contents of the file, only the metadata, the file would be shredded and it would be impossible to recover the encrypted home folder even with the password.Is there a simple way I could make GDM check this or would I have to patch and recompile GDM for something like this to work?
I just added a nice little HDTV as a second display on my laptop, it worked fine but I found that the text was a bit hard to read so I decided to change it, got another one yesterday, just plugged it in and everything was perfect. Today I came back from work, plugged the laptop in the monitor, booted the machine, and got a wrapped display, the bottom part (about 1/4 of teh display) seem to be stuck with the content that was visible when I opened my session, and the top part is shifted up, making it totally useless.I took a picture of the display, you can see it here [URL]... I will try to see what happen if I put back the other display, but I really want to get working with the new one.
In the partition where F14 is installed, GParted shows a traffic danger sign. The explanation is "Logical Volume Management is not yet supported". I should like to change lvm2 file system to ext 4. The /boot partition is ext4. How can I do it?
I just installed F15 and although different, I like it a lot. One thing I don't like, however, is the default auto-completion of environment variables in the terminal. In F14 and older, if you type for instance
Code:
ls $HOME and hit TAB, auto-complete will list the contents of $HOME to search deeper, so to say. But in F15, the terminal automatically escapes the $ sign. If you do the same as above, you get
Code:
ls $HOME
instead of
Code:
ls /home/benny/
how to change the auto-complete settings of the terminal so that $'s are not escaped anymore?
I have an HP Compaq nx6235 Notebook, which was happily running Windows Vista Home Premium, until I finally got around to loading Linux openSUSE 11.1 from a DVD issued with a magazine last year. I now have a problem, because my Windows Vista has been wrapped up in the Linux partitioning system. I know it is located at dev/sda1 and that it is an HPFS/NTFS filetype, create a dual boot drive on my notebook, so that I can happily play with both systems. I am newbie, so the instructions should be as clear and simple as possible.
Following a slight dose of vandalism, I have invested in a security camera system.It is basically a hard drive in a box which connects to a couple of cameras.There is also a USB lead to connect it to a PC, and some software that enables Windows to look at the recordings (I can't get it to work on WINE).I was hoping to simply bypass that, and just look at the drive directly, but it seems from here that the disk "doesn't contain a valid partition table".Obviously, the box thinks it has a valid partition table, else it would not work.I was quite surprised: I had assumed the box would have some kind of cut down Linux based system, but if that were the case, you would expect it to use a recognisable filesystem.
I have been experiencing a problem where the screen loads and after initial first few lines breaks up into multiple repetitions of lines. Reloading helps but has to be repeated when pageing down. Mail is no problem; it is supplied by my network provider. OS is openSUSE 11.2 which I update when advised. Below is a sample from the error console:
I've just installed Kubuntu 11.04, switched on wobbly windows effect. It runs very smooth on my Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS with dual screen twinview turned on. However, I get these lines when I drag/move the window upwards - see screenshot:
I was recently using OO-calc to try to organize some table-based data to clean it up (delete unneeded columns) before converting it to a database insert statement. While doing this, at one point, open office changed the grid width and height to being really small. I changed it back to normal, but now even the font is really small, but the font-size is set to 10 px. I can't figure out (a) what happened, and (b) how to put it back to normal. I'll attach 2 images to make it more clear about what it's actually doing...
I am setting up a server and trying to access its partition over the nfs on a client machine. Our server has 4 1.5TB disks and the idea was to make a RAID 5 out of it.Now here is the problem:When I used only 1 disk that is nfs partition was of 1.5TB, I got fine speed(30MBps), but with multiple disks whether I am making 3TB (Raid 10) or 4.5TB (Raid 5), I get a really poor speed of 5-6MBps. I/O just waits.But for all above cases, disk I/O locally works fine.Does anyone knows any NFS limitation that is causing this problem?
I have FedoraCore 12 x86 DVD already installed since the last weekend, no Internet connection available yet for such PC for lack of time to work in such PC. Since two days ago my video resolution has a weird behavior (I only did one configuration change about pass 800x600 to 1024x768) and since there I never did other change video resolution, and with the new configuration I have been using Linux without problems. Now two days ago When I start up the PC and arrive to the login screen I can see clearly that the resolution for my all graphical interface can be 800x600.
After to enter to my account I see the follow behavior, that consist in load the graphical environment and changing to 1024x768 resolution. See my Photo01.png, after that the pointer of my mouse (black row) never is show, I must do something like Photo02.png to see the black row. My only solution by the moment is arrive to the configuration resolution (see Photo03.png) and only do click in Apply button to refresh all the environment and see the desired black row (pointer), see Photo04.png, but I must do this each time when I start up the PC.
The installation was fine, after all the updates were done, I've installed Mesa-dri-experimental and then Gnome-shell.After I activated Gnome-Shell windows have some weird aspect (see image below )I've a acer 8930g laptop with a geforce 9600m gt.Do you have any Idea of what's wrong?I've also noticed that this problem disappear as soon I apply a theme with non rounded windows ( like Crux )
I've been installing/tweaking F12, and I've found something that I can't say I've ever seen or expected to find before: the contents of my ~/Documents folder has lost its permissions and ownership info. I restored it from a backup last night/this morning, and I've rebooted a few times since then. Other folders from the backup are OK, just Documents.I don't know what my options are. I could try to blow it away and restore it, but that doesn't answer what caused it. If there's a "relabel" or something, that might help... though I've never had to do it before. Could it be that after these two-and-some-change years, my hard drive is giving out? Good thing I have a recent backup... but it'd be a shame to lose all my work getting F12 to work again.
